Our Services
Aristotle is said to have ruled that 'Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom,' But how do we go about knowing ourself better? Therapy can be helpful.
The many different kinds of therapies (modalities) out there can be confusing, but they all lead to the same place of increased self awareness. They just do it in slightly different ways. So how do you know which is the right one for you?
Read about what we offer below. Call us - we love to talk about what we do. Book a session. For me, it's more about the relationship that modality and you will soon get a flavour of whether the relationship is right for you.

Trauma Focussed CBT for PTSD
Main Concept:
We can be so overcome by overwhelming events that the memory cannot be processed properly. Reminders in our daily life, (smells, feelings, sounds, flashbacks, etc.) can make us feel we are reliving the event over and over again. Some of the things we do to protect ourselves can be avoiding reminders, being constantly hyper vigilant. This this can impact on our lives in many ways.
TF CBT helps tackle thought of the event
Reduces anxiety & avoidant behaviour
Gradually exposes to the overwhelming memory using behavioural experiments & assigns it to the past while processing the emotion.
Helps us rebuild our lives the way we want to live.
